When I had to get screws in my foot, the metal really irritated me, though I didn't realize how much until they took them out. After that surgery, the pain improved immensely -- it was like night and day. Some people have metal allergies or sensitivities, and that could very well be The Mayors problem. Let's hope so anyway!

Tuned in for the update on Mayor's arm. Glad they took the pins out. I broke my arm last year, it hurt terribly. My husband at the age of 4 climbed a tree, tied rope around branch and his waist and jumped. He expected to fly. Instead he broke his arm. He has no memory of the pain- but does love to tell the story.

When Soccer Boy broke his wrist last year, the move from the big, above the elbow cast to the smaller cast made a huge difference in his comfort level. I hope The Mayor continues to heal well and that his arm is as good as new by the time he turns into a polar bear.

Just stumbled across your blog via the Buzz. Really enjoy what I've read so far! Glad to hear your little guy has his cast off and pins out. Hopefully that will make a big difference in his pain. Best wishes to him!

Thanks for the update. Little Mayor has been on my mind. I was going to be sad, waiting for his wish to be about his broken arm. It did my heart good, and said a ton about kids that age, when it was a polar bear wish. Yay.

That is so funny. It's awesome that he thinks that could happen, and that it doesn't even occur to him that anyone around him would be totally freaked if he suddenly turned into a polar bear and then back to a boy. Too cute. And I'm so glad to hear he's got a new plan. I felt so bad for him after I read that last post.
